Upper mustang Trek is Nepal’s most mysterious and sacred area of Nepal in Mustang District. This trek is mainly for those who are interested in exploring vast restricted areas where the casual trekkers are not allowed and special permissions should be taken from Government of Nepal to visit those areas. This area is restricted because the cultural and historical monuments and natural habitats are supposed to be protected as their presence and conservation is really important for the nation. The entire trek is exciting which make us fortunate to pass through high peaks, passes, glaciers and alpine valley. The culture here is influenced by Tibetan culture and surprisingly the culture, lifestyle and heritage is unchanged in here. Usually culture of here surprises travelers because they live in their own way and the most surprising thing is that all the brothers marry to a single girl.

The trek is highlighted everywhere with the stunning mountains like Annapurna I (8091m). To say in advance you will be surrounded by total of 35 mountains and stunningly they are all over 6000 meters.
